Canada's Nuclear Waste Management Organization (NWMO) and the Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Waste Management Company (SKB) investigate approaches for managing used nuclear fuel and disposing of all radioactive wastes in their respective countries. NWMO is also responsible for taking the Deep Geological Repository project for low- and intermediate-level waste through the regulatory approvals process. With each nuclear accident, there is mounting pressure to move the solutions for nuclear waste disposal forward. NWMO and SKB rely on each other to share the development of the technology required to implement the disposal solution. However, the geological mediums that will be used by SKB and NWMO are different, and hence, the technology must be modified and adapted for these very different geological conditions. Canada cannot afford to conduct nuclear research at this scale alone. The challenges are too great and time required too long. The research proposed in this CRD will support NWMO's and SKB's mandate, and Canada will benefit from the sharing of the technology needed for implementing the disposal solution.

加拿大核废物管理组织（NWMO）和瑞典核燃料和废物管理公司（SKB）研究了各自国家管理废核燃料和处置所有放射性废物的方法。 NWMO 还负责将中低放废物深层地质处置库项目纳入监管审批程序。每发生一次核事故，推动核废料处理解决方案的压力就会越来越大。 NWMO 和 SKB 相互依赖，共同开发实施处置解决方案所需的技术。然而，SKB 和 NWMO 将使用的地质介质不同，因此必须修改和适应这些非常不同的地质条件。加拿大无力独自进行如此规模的核研究。挑战太大，所需时间太长。本 CRD 中提出的研究将支持 NWMO 和 SKB 的任务，加拿大将从共享实施处置解决方案所需的技术中受益。
